I'd love to have Isaiah Thomas...

He was the leading scorer for sactown off the bench. He seems just like Robinson.

Hes really fuggin good. Should absolutely be starting IMO.

No they won't. West is too competitive and they don't have the horses to hold up. If they lose tonight, they're 10th in west.

Since HFB just put them up 6 with 47 left, they're about to be in 7th
 
Curry should be careful. He'll break his ankle on one of those body bumps.

10th in the west with 4 1/2 months to go.

They'll be in the playoffs. The west is strong, but it's not that strong.

He's alright. He choked on an easy 11 footer I could make to tie the game.

Yet he was the reason they were that close in the first place. He's young as hell, and for the pick selection, is an absolute steal. The fact that he is even in the position to take the GW (or really, game tying) shot speaks volumes to his growth.

Just because he missed it doesn't mean he sucks or is "alright".

He should be starting over Vasquez, no question.

Blazers, Spurs, Thunder, Mavericks, Nuggets, Rockets, Clippers, Grizzlies are all better than Warriors. Lakers will surge when Kobe comes back. Pelicans are playing well. I don't see how Warriors make the playoffs. Seriously.

Grizzles are not better. Though, they beat PHX so I could see how you could think that. ha! Lakers will falter with Kobe. It will not be pretty, so they are out. Mavs are not better. They are good, but not better than GS.

Then again, this is all opinion at this point. I just think GS with Iggy back will get right back to rolling. I have no question about that.
 
Warriors go on road now and their woes there should seal their season. Maybe they'll get Wiggins. You never know.

I don't think Nuggets, Grizzlies or Mavs belong in that sentence. But it'll be fun to watch.

Aside from the Jazz, Nets, and Knicks, no ones season is over. Even the Bobcats.
 
Klay post game interview says JO made an "epic speech" at halftime spurring the W's to a comeback from down 27 points.

Mavericks beat GS and have players with championship experience. Grizzlies are tougher. As much as I hate to say it, the Lakers will be good when Kobe comes back. You can't count him out. There is a lot of talent on that team that will play off of him very well. And there is no discord. Everyone knows Kobe is #1 and they're fine with that. Lakers will compete for as high as 5 seed.

Seasons cannot be sealed in December. Something you Blazer fans appear to have forgotten this season.

And Toronto was like "Hey, when we did this to Portland from down 17... they still won. Oh no! We suck again!"

Why does beating a team once automatically discredit someone? They play them 4 times. A series has never been won on the 1st game, ever.

Once Iggy comes back, GS will be right there in the 5-7th seed. It's really not even a question. lol.

What did we forget? That was beat the Pacers? That we beat the Warriors in GS? I remember. We're just enjoying the present. Something you Warriors fans can't. Enjoy 8th place. Yes, seasons can be sealed in December out West. You dig too much of a hole, you have to beat out too many teams to get back in the hunt. Becomes too difficult. I picked Blazers to get a top 3 seed and we're going about that very well.

Iggy may never be what he once was. The Warriors are in disarray. Falling behind by 27 at home against Toronto? Eek!

We've down our own fair share of falling. And given up big leads to subpar teams. So, we're not immune to this.

Come on KS give it to him . . . . . .. . . .. Isaiah Thomas is garbage!

Nuggets are on fire right now. Do you watch these teams play? Denver will be a top 4 seed.

Wrong. Knicks and Nets will both make playoffs. Nets are only 1.5 games behind being the 4th seed in the conference. Knicks are only 2.5 games back. Nets will probably get the 4th seed. Knicks will get 7th or 8th. People shouldn't bury them so fast. Brooklyn has been without DWill and Lopez for most of their losses. Knicks are sorely missing Tyson Chandler.

Ummm we haven't lost to a single team that is under .500. Period. Fuck, we only have three losses to begin with. Blazers are playing on a whole other level.

Yes, and the parts I've seen in their 7 game streak don't negate the things that made them 4-6. And in that streak? DAL x2 (who I also said shouldn't be in your list), BKN, MIN, NYK, TOR. Sweeping most of the Atlantic Division does not a juggernaut make. They're 6-6 in conference.
